“Circumcision is different than castration!” Watters replied.
El-Sayed, a physician and former Detroit health director, made the comparison while arguing against government restrictions on sex change procedures for minors during an appearance on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”
“Do you really want to have this conversation? Are you circumcised?” El-Sayed asked Watters as the two debated whether the government should prohibit sex-change surgeries on minors. Watters initially appeared shocked before El-Sayed asked, “Jesse, are you?”
“Yeah, yeah, but I mean, that’s a personal question, doctor!” Watters responded.
El-Sayed then suggested the question demonstrated an inconsistency in Watters' position, saying, “You probably should want to move on.”
“Circumcision is different than castration!” Watters replied.
El-Sayed continued the comparison, arguing that it was a “problem” for Watters to support government restrictions on sex-change surgeries for children while not opposing circumcision. “I’m just saying that yes, circumcision is surgery on a kid’s ding-a-ling,” El-Sayed said. “So if you really want to bring that up, you can … I just think you guys are really selective about these things.”
Watters rejected the comparison and described El-Sayed's position as “wacky” and “sick.”
“Abdul, Michigan’s not going for that. That is sick stuff,” Watters said.
During the interview, Watters also confronted El-Sayed over his positions on Sharia law. El-Sayed defended his adherence but claimed that he doesn’t plan to impose his religious beliefs on other Americans. “Nobody is trying to push Sharia law on anyone else, just like I hope nobody is trying to push Canon law on anybody else, because we live in an America where you should have the freedom of your religion,” El-Sayed said.
He also claimed, “There's statistical evidence that the president and the vice president like to target me simply as a function of my faith.”
El-Sayed also defended his proposal to increase taxes on wealthy Americans. He had previously said people with more than $100 million should face a wealth tax, questioning what they would do with additional money. “The question ultimately is, ‘Do you want to drive on good roads, or would you rather have a billionaire make a second billion?’ That's what Mike Rogers wants. That's why Donald Trump wants. Apparently, that's what you want. I think the people in Michigan want something different,” El-Sayed said.
According to Fox News, El-Sayed and his wife reported $686,069 in income in 2025, putting their household among Michigan's higher earners.
